Rose Cottage is a charming period four/five bedroomed detached home. Set within an acre of beautifully maintained, level gardens, it offers a rare combination of space, privacy, and convenience. Situated in a popular location with excellent access to local amenities and the City of Bristol, this characterful property features generous off-road parking and stabling, currently used as storage. The light and airy interior offers spacious accommodation throughout, including a beautifully fitted kitchen, a large and inviting living room, and a stunning all-year round garden room that enjoys a delightful outlook over the garden. Rose Cottage has retained a wealth of period features including beams, deep sills and attractive fireplaces. It provides flexible living space ideal for families or those seeking room to grow, all within a peaceful and well-connected setting.
Dating back to the early 19th century, this distinctive detached home sits peacefully on a quiet country lane, yet remains well-connected to Bristol and a range of local amenities. Owned and carefully maintained by the same family for nearly 50 years, the property has been thoughtfully extended over time, including an extended kitchen (updated 4 years ago) and the addition of a striking garden room at the rear with views across the grounds.
A stained-glass front door opens into a warm and inviting hallway, often used as a cosy sitting area, featuring a stone fireplace with a gas stove. Just off the hall is a characterful ground floor bathroom, complete with a freestanding Victorian bath, practical storage, and an airing cupboard housing the hot water tank and water softener.
From the hallway, oak flooring continues into an expansive triple-aspect sitting room with exposed beams and a large Inglenook-style fireplace that forms the heart of the space. To the rear, a walk-through study with glazed alcove and storage connects to the garden room, which has been upgraded with an insulated solid roof for year-round enjoyment. French doors lead out to a sunny terrace and beautifully maintained rear gardens.
The kitchen is a generous and sociable hub of the home, well-equipped with, gas fired Aga, AEG induction hob, electric oven, twin Belfast sink, Miele dishwasher, and an American-style fridge/freezer. Additional features include a larder cupboard, an adjoining snug or fifth bedroom, and a large rear boot room ideal for outdoor gear. This leads into a dedicated utility space with laundry appliances and a Worcester gas boiler. A small study completes the accommodation on the ground floor.
Upstairs, at the rear are four comfortable double bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom with underfloor heating. The principal bedroom benefits from a walk-through dressing area and a contemporary style en suite wet room with high-quality fittings.
Outside, a five-bar gate opens to a paved driveway with ample parking, a full-length covered barn, and original stone-built stables. Formerly used as five loose boxes, the stables now offer excellent storage and workshop space, with potential for conversion to ancillary accommodation, subject to planning. A second barn could be converted to garaging for two or three vehicles.
The grounds are a particular highlight, with level lawns, mature trees and flower borders, a pond with fountain, and a paddock bordered by farmland. Beyond the apple trees, part of the adjoining land has been dedicated as an ecological woodland, which is now thriving. The gardens enjoy uninterrupted views of a wooded hillside and back onto an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering a truly peaceful and picturesque setting.
